My live-in Indonesian helper takes care of my aged parents. I have been trying hard to employ a cleaner for once a week just to clean the 5 room HDB flat. The asking rates were $20 ~ $35 hourly. Even that I do not do get the full 4 hours that they being paid. They are either late or left early. These are Singaporean housewives.
ReplyDeleteStrange Happenings In A Hospital ( COVID BURNOUT. LET US HAVE SOME GOOD LAUGHS)
ReplyDeleteThere was this case in this hospital's Intensive Care ward where patients always died in the same bed on Friday mornings around 9am regardless of their age, gender, medical history or medical
condition.
This puzzled the doctors and some even thought that it had to do with the supernatural: Why did death occur at that same bed around the same time every Friday?
So the doctors decided to go down to that particular ward to investigate the cause of the deaths.
Come Friday morning, everyone at the hospital ward nervously waited for the terrible phenomenon to occur again. The new (unknowing) patient laid there.
Some doctors held wooden crosses, prayer books and other holy objects to ward off evil...and they waited.
8am, the patient was still alive...
8.30am...still breathing...
Just before the 'cursed' time, the door to the ward swung open...
Then Ah Soh, the part-time Friday cleaner, comes in and unplugs the life support system so that she can use the vacuum cleaner!
JOKE OF THE EVENING.
